I don't usally agree with anything PETA has to say or do but this chasing pigs is crazy. If this was a wild pig chasing a small child they would shot it.
They certainly can find something more constructive.
Anybody that allowed their children to chase a pig and tortur and scare them want to volunteer their child to be chased next year by the other children? Bet not

I'm down for some good old -fashioned fun, but the pig chase is Archaic, Cruel & Idiotic!
The pig chase gives a blackeye to an otherwise awesome weekend. Let's hope that those in charge can come up with a replacement activity that is fun that doesn't have a cruel, tormenting objective.
Remember, most serial killers started out as animal abusers.

I can't speak for all of Barnesville, but I hate the pig chase and don't attend nor will I permit my kids to attend and chase and terrify a defenseless animal. I love Buggy Days, but would love to see this event be discontinued.

To help ease the pains of our pig loving friends & neighbors, let me explain. For a pig, being chased by a bunch of kids seems bad at first. Then one day they are loaded up & taken to a slaughterhouse. Then the pig says, if I could only go back & be chased by those kids again.
